Noemie Lenoir is a striking brunette of mixed blood who has become a real star in the fashion world. The bright Frenchwoman managed to prove herself in various spheres of the fashion industry, successfully appear in advertising and even try her hand at cinema.
The beginning of the biography
Noemie was born in the small French town of Les Yulis, in a mixed family. The father of the future model is French, and her mother is from Madagascar. Such a mixture of blood had the most favorable effect on Noemi's appearance: she has dark skin, a shock of lush curly hair and an unusual cut of dark eyes. To match the appearance and temperament: the girl from the very childhood was very enterprising, bright, loved attention and was not shy of strangers.
Until the age of 16, Mademoiselle Lenoir led the ordinary life of a girl from the French province: she went to school, not showing much zeal for science, and went in for sports. In high school, the promoters of the modeling agency drew attention to her: a tall, slender girl clearly stood out among her peers. In addition, this type of appearance was just becoming fashionable, the catwalks were flooded with exotic models with Asian or African roots.
Model career
Noemie was offered to act as a model at the Ralph Lauren show. It was luck: not always beginners manage to get to such a prestigious and highly paid show. The show was a success, and impressive offers fell on the young model. However, at the insistence of her parents, she still graduated from school and only after that she seriously took up her own career. The girl had to learn English, since without it it would have been impossible to conquer international catwalks.
The next step was moving to New York and signing a contract with one of the largest modeling agencies. Noemie actively participated in shows and was shot for advertising. In 2001, she signed a contract with the cosmetics company l'Oreal: such work is considered very prestigious and profitable for any model. From now on, Lenoir's face adorned all advertising posters, the girl worked alongside such stars as Andy MacDowell and Laetitia Casta.
Noemi's gorgeous figure secured her other interesting contracts as well. Lenoir took part in Victoria's Secret fashion shows, showed beachwear, starred for calendars.
In 2002, the successful model decided to try her hand at cinema. The first and very successful work was the small role of the servant Givmikiss in the comedy film "Asterix and Obelix: Cleopatra's Mission." The debutante was on the same set with Christian Clavier, Gerard Depardieu, Monica Bellucci. After the first film, others followed, mainly action films, crime dramas and comedies. Ampluis Lenoir is an exotic beauty with a mysterious and unpredictable character. Unfortunately, most of the proposed roles are secondary, the girl has not yet managed to become the main character of the picture.
Despite the success of the films with her participation and the favorable attention of the press, Noemi decided not to bet on the cinema and returned to the podium. She participated in many prestigious shows, starred for glossy magazines, often appearing on the covers.
Another success was the signing of a long-term contract with the Mark & Spencer brand. Noemie participates in advertising and catalog shootings, travels a lot. Her type is still in demand, and photographers and producers note the high efficiency of the girl, her punctuality and lack of whims. Despite the demand, Noemi does not suffer from star fever, it is easy and comfortable to work with her. Today the girl lives in Paris, but travels often, her schedule is scheduled months in advance.
Mademoiselle Lenoir does not expand on her plans for the future. It is possible that after completing her modeling career, she will start her own line of clothing or cosmetics, following the example of her older and no less successful colleagues.
Personal life
The spectacular model has always enjoyed increased attention of the opposite sex. However, she was always distinguished by prudence: Noemi's reputation was impeccable, without dubious novels, loud scandals and provocative photos. French footballer Claude Makelele became Noemi's chosen one. The wedding took place in 2004, soon the couple had a long-awaited baby, who was named Kelyan.
The birth of a child interrupted Noemi's successful career for just a few months, and soon she returned to filming. Unfortunately, family life did not last long either. After 5 years, the couple announced a divorce, but in fact, the relationship broke off even earlier. The footballer and the model parted without a noisy scandal, but the divorce was not peaceful either.
An unsuccessful marriage negatively affected Noemi's health and well-being. She began to abuse alcohol and drugs, and in 2010 attempted suicide. The girl was found unconscious in a park near her house. Treatment and long-term rehabilitation followed. Later Lenoir fully admitted her mistakes and gave up bad habits. Today she leads a healthy lifestyle, eats only organic food and avoids stress. Unsuccessful suicide Noemi considers the most stupid act in his life, incompatible with the career of a successful model and actress.
Today Lenoir is completely devoted to work, devoting time and raising his son. There is no information about new novels, the model is not going to marry, but in an interview she says that she dreams of having another child.
